While recognizing the massive maintenance burden of this COPR, I suspect
the majority of objections will come from the enthusiast end user type -
you know, the ones that are so eager to try the new thing they read about
that they blow right past the description. This COPR received a lot of
publicity; fedoramagazine articles, social media, blog posts, etc.
While I'm not volunteeering to maintain this, I do ask - what is the reason
for deleting it vs. just leaving it around in a EOL state where it's not being
updated? We don't remove EOL releases, for example.
